Jim McKee: Cass County's humble start

Summary by Ground News
Cass County was named for Brigadier General Lewis Cass, an Ohio attorney, Secretary of War under President Jackson and U.S. senator from Michigan. Samuel Martin was legislatively granted a license for a ferry from Coonville and with his settling on the west shore and his assumed residence at Old Barracks, he is usually considered the first settler in Cass County. The two contenders were Plattsmouth and Kenosha, 12 miles south on the Missouri River.
